Enjoyed the moment rather than capture it

For a guy who takes a lot of photos, i didn’t take many yesterday. This one was an afterthought.

Enjoyed the moment rather than capture it.

Rare.

Would i do it the same way again?

Probably not.

Do i regret not taking more photos?

Nope.

Son, it’s ok to be okay with not doing what you always do.

Remember, however, that great habits are scalable and produce superior long-term results. Aim for perfection, settle for excellence.

The absence of a group photo, when we had everyone here, would have been great but not having it doesn’t dimmish the memory of a wonderful day.

Happy Ground Hog Day 2016.

Ted Cruz and Hillary Clinton won last night’s Iowa caucus.

But today, in reality, is (now) May 12.

What happened 100 days ago (when i wrote this) is long forgotten.

What will happen 100 days from now is not on most people’s radars.

  1. The past
  2. The present
  3. The future

Three places to organize our things, our ideas, our experiences, our hopes, our dreams, our successes and our failures.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Themed merchandise is another nail in our coffin?

On the desk in the Pennsylvania home is a small Snowman pencil holder. No big deal. Many homes have themed decorations.

Can’t help but wonder if these items become commercially viable because the civilized human race is spending insidiously less time outdoors.

Does the snowman pencil holder remind us of Winter or does nature?

God is present in the small flower in the bud vase on the hotel restaurant table. If we look close enough, and often enough, we find God everywhere.

The Fear of Living

What?

Yep, that’s our biggest fear.  But it never shows up on any list.

Why?

Because no one will admit it.

How do I know?

Because, think about it, if the fear of living wasn’t our biggest fear, why was this phrase – carpe diem – invented?

Carpe diem translates to:  “While we’re talking, envious time is fleeing: seize the day, put no trust in the future.”
